We went there for a bespoke private event. Enjoyed it very much. I had the gluten free tea for one. The only reason it loses a star; for the price, £10.99, although it was reasonable enough, I would have liked more than a single cup of coffee. Maybe a small cafetiere or at least a refill. I had a sandwich, a scone with jam and cream and a coffee. I asked for a small jug of tap water too. There were pots of tea for those having tea but no pots of coffee and no pots of hot water.
That said, the food was wonderful and everything else was perfect. My sandwich was cheese and cucumber with nice gluten free bread and the right depth of filling but no seasoning and the scone was perfect. The scone had just the right texture and didn't taste gluten free. I asked for my own pot of jam and cream as everyone else assumed I was getting them and divided their group teas accordingly which was fair enough. The service ( new owner last September) was wonderful and this small gripe didn't diminish the fun of the occasion. But more drinks would have made it perfect. It was a hot day and we arrived thirsty.
The presentation was gorgeous and we all had china cake stands placed in front of us. It felt like a posh spa weekend but convivial and great for chatting.
There are now several plant based and gluten free cakes and a red velvet cake and a caramel cake that were highly praised by those who had the deluxe tea. I highly recommend this place. You would struggle to get to the toilet if in a wheelchair, possibly, but this is an old building. It may be that they have a portable ramp for the doorway, I don't know. Otherwise, it's all ground level including the toilets, which I didn't visit.
Dog friendly and a fabulous place to enjoy your rest and food too. Really love this café totally amazing
The Flower Cafe was an AMAZING venue for our little meet up. They were really organised and communication beforehand was exceptional. All the food was delicious and they catered well for everyone. Thank you for having us!
